Exactly. All animals play their part. They are more scared of us and just want to be left alone. I think people tend to forget that we are on their turf and they should be respected as such. It's crazy. Here in Utah wealthy people like to build these crazy houses up in the woods and end up having issues with cougars or bobcats and pets being left outdoors. Then they kill the cat. What did you expect when you've got a meal chained up in the yard? Happens all the time. I guess they just want to live in the wilderness but without all that pesky wilderness.

Or people in Florida grumping about alligators. They were there first.

When your son's third grade teacher had him inside a circle in class and he was explaining to all his classmates where his Ball Python was from, the name of the morph and how to care for your pet snake.

I hate morons like that. Here we get city people that buy a house out in the mountains, and then are surprised by the bears, coyote, mice, snakes and other beasts in their backyard.
go back to the city!!!
